DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
The Globe Quick Response Series GL-QR/C Concealed Pendent Sprinkler is a low profile,
aesthetically pleasing design. It provides sprinkler operation approximately six times
faster than ordinary sprinklers and can be installed wherever standard concealed spray
sprinklers are specified when allowed by the applicable standards. It offers the additional
feature of greatly increased safety to life and should be used advisedly and under the direction of
approving authorities having jurisdiction. The Sprinkler is available with 1/8" adjustment
and a low profile cover plate assembly. All that is seen at the ceiling is a 3 5/16" diameter
ceiling plate color finished to match the specifier's exact requirements. The Series GL-QR Concealed
Sprinkler may be virtually invisible as it does not interrupt the "smooth flow" of the ceiling.
Globe's Concealed Sprinkler utilizes its 3mm frangible glass ampule type sprinkler which is located
above the ceiling and concealed from view by the ceiling plate. The ceiling plate is soldered to the
sprinkler's special upper support assembly in three places. Upon the application of sufficient heat,
the plate falls to the floor exposing the quick response pendent spray sprinkler. At the ampule's
rated temperature, the sprinkler opens discharging water onto the floor in its required and approved
distribution pattern.
A special spring is attached to the pendent sprinkler deflector that serves to provide
a constant tension against the ceiling plate. This feature virtually ensures freedom from
environmental vibration problems.
